I would love to hear what your favorite free photo editing apps are…please share a link in the comments below!
I love all these apps and use them regularly. Kim you always have such up to date and relevant information on your blogs and in the emails that you send. Thanks for adding value into my life and business almost everyday!

WOOHOO, thank you for the lovely compliment!
Hi Kim,
My problem has been converting digitized images taken with my mobile and then sent to my Documents, into PDF they are in JPG and now need to be put into PDF
.
Note: I am into embroidery and want to do a Gig for FIVERR where I am offering to digitize images/pictures/photos, into stitches so they can be embroidered. So when I talk about a digitized design, it means it is ready for someone to load onto their embroidery machine and and stitch it.
Now for my image gallery, I need to change my digitized designs into PDF so they can be printed.
I have found smallpdf.com/jpg-to-pdf which is easy to use but, once the design has been converted, I battle to find it in order to post it to Fiverr.
Do you have any better suggestions?
What software are you using to digitize your pictures?
Hi Sheilah Am I correct that you want something to convert a jpg to a pdf? If so, – I have PDF PROvider – with it, I can go into the app, select photo, select a photo from the camera roll, click the funky A in the top right, click covert to PDF (or add to existing PDF), rename it so I can find it easily, click ok, click the Left arrow, click pdfs in the left column, and click the new pdf file, then I can click the square with arrow in bottom right, and from that menu – send to dropbox, save to google drive, send by email, or open in another file.
🙂 Hope this helps,
Kaye Swain

Thanks as always for the great suggestions. I use Pic-Stitch. I noticed the Panorama App you mentioned is a pay app now. Love the WordSwag App you recommended on your Instagram Webinar. Have a great day.
Great list of apps here and Snapseed is amazing!!! A few of these I have never heard of so I will be checking them out. Thanks!
Yes, love Snapseed :-)!
Thanks for this list. I have been searching for the new tools of photo editing. I always use VSCO Cam and I am pretty pleased. But I want to try something new, now I know what it is.
Thanks, Kim. What would benefit me is a photo editor that permits me to easily pick several photos to print on a single page. The editor I have prints the same picture several times on a page, but I want to print different pictures on the same page without a lot of fancy tricks. Will one of the above do this? Thanks,
I would take time and download them all, Wayne and see which ones do what you want them to do.
Thanks Kim! I downloaded them all and will see which ones are right for me.

Hope you pick up a few you love 🙂
I love pictures and would love to do that for a living thank you very much.
Hope these helped a bit 🙂
So much great information that I never would have found on my own. Thanks!

Hello there,
This is a great list.
I make an app called Preset(I know, shameless plug), that would fit nicely into this list.
Preset is very easy to use and it saves your edit so you apply it to multiple images.
Best,
